Girl Scout Badge Weekends
The Girl Scout badge weekends are offered each spring and fall to Brownies, Juniors, Cadettes and Seniors at Sharpe Reservation. These all-inclusive weekends include lodging in our heated cabins with indoor bathrooms and showers, classroom buildings in case of rain, four meals provided by our dining service and full instructions by our professional Environmental Educators.
A typical badge weekend begins with an 8:00 am Saturday morning registration in the Dining Hall. Classes begin at 9:15 am once all troops are registered and have time to move into assigned cabins and enjoy a buffet breakfast. After-dinner programming includes entertaining songs and campfire skits performed by each attending troop. The weekend concludes by 11:00 am on Sunday.
A deposit of $35 is required to secure a reservation per attendee and is refundable up to two weeks prior to the event. A confirmation packet will be sent upon receipt of deposit with the registration form.
Our spring 2012 Girl Scout Weekends will be open for registration on January 2nd, 2012.
The Brownie Weekend will be held on April 14-15, 2012, when we will be completing the Birds and Winter Wonders fun patches. We are offering three regular Junior, Cadette and Senior Weekends: March 10-11, March 24-25, and March 31-April 1, 2012. We will cover two badges with the juniors: Maple Sugaring and Ecology. The Cadettes and Seniors will be completing Winter Survival and Cooking. All weekends will be held at Camp Hidden Valley.
The all-inclusive cost is $70 per Girl Scout and $50 per adult (The Brownie Day Trip is $52 per girl and $37 per adult, with one adult per troop for free). Brownies staying overnight can bring two adults for free, for all other troop levels one adult is free.
